Description

This easy Rotel Dip is rich, creamy, and packed with bold flavor! Made with ground chuck, sautéed onions, zesty spices, and Rotel tomatoes with green chilies, it’s a warm, cheesy dip that’s always a crowd-pleaser. Cream cheese and sour cream add irresistible creaminess, while sharp cheddar brings the perfect melt. Serve it hot with chips and watch it disappear fast!


Ingredients

1/2 cup onion, diced

1 pound ground beef (I used ground chuck 80/20)

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/8 teaspoon Chili powder

1 can (10 ounces) Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies, drained

1/2 cup sour cream

1 block (8 ounces) cream cheese, room temperature

2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, crumble the ground beef. Add the onion powder, salt, pepper, and Chili powder. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Warm a large skillet (10 inches) on medium heat. Add the onions and soften them for 6-8 minutes. You may need to add some olive oil.
  3. Add the seasoned ground beef and cook on medium heat. Cook the ground beef is no longer pink.
  4. Add the diced tomatoes and mix well.
  5. Turn the heat off and add the sour cream (temper it first), cream cheese, and shredded Cheddar cheese. SEE NOTE
  6. Turn the heat to low and mix until all the cheeses are melted and incorporated. Don’t overcook it.
  7. Serve and Enjoy!
